3 Tips for Getting through the Holidays after Divorce

Holidays can be a particularly tough time for divorcees. The family you once had is no longer together, and holidays have a strange knack for bringing up painful memories.

Spend time with friends and family—Don’t hole up by yourself over the holidays. Spend time with the people who love you and care for you. Get together with friends and family and enjoy the season.

Don’t dwell on the past—The holidays are often a time for reflection, but if you’ve gone through a tough divorce, the last thing you need to do is focus on the past right now. Enjoy the company of your friends and family, be thankful for what you have now, and look to the future with optimism.

Go light on the alcohol—If you’re feeling bummed out about your divorce during the holidays, stay away from the booze. Getting drunk will only make you feel worse. You’ll only get more depressed and much angrier. Find healthy ways to get past your depression, like exercising.
